Talk:Kandagawa (song)

Move to delete
I have some difficulty understanding why someone called Flyguy who is a member of Wikiproject Pennsylvania State University would come along and quite gratuitously put a Notability notice on a Japanese song. This is an extremely well-known Japanese song from the 70s that has a lot of emotional resonance for people from that period. It also topped the Japanese charts for a number of weeks. The fact that Flyguy has never heard of it doesn't seem sufficient grounds for placing such a notice. Neither the placing of the notice nor the need to defend it from deletion seems a sensible use of time. Wouldn't it better suggesting the deletion of articles that you actually know something about?

There's a reference to this song in the 2010 Japanese movie "Time Traveller: The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" where a girl goes back to the 70s. In the scene when she goes out of a public bath she sees a couple with a long red scarf. She shouts: "Hoo! Real kandagawa! Like in the song!"
